This tool isn't used in the classroom at the moment, but has been a helpful tool for some students. If you try this one at home, be consistent and learn one action at a time, building up to the full seven. You can start with one skill that needs extra practice and one skill they may already know for your first reading practice. Keep it short and positive! Always celebrate the mistakes and what was done well. Both are improtant steps in learning.
